The 𝗳𝘀𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗶𝘀𝗲𝘀.𝗮𝗰𝗰𝗲𝘀𝘀 method tests a user's permissions for the file or directory specified by path.
This is the recommended method by 𝗡𝗼𝗱𝗲𝗷𝘀 and the replacement of 𝗳𝘀.𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀, as it was deprecated.
Also it's usually not a good idea to use the sync version 𝗳𝘀.𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀𝗦𝘆𝗻𝗰 since it blocks the main thread.
It's better than 𝗳𝘀.𝗲𝘅𝗶𝘀𝘁𝘀 as you can see; promisified and provides more modes than just checking if the file exists.
I enjoyed learning about this method, hopefully you did too!
